Manitoba man wins $100K windfall on scratch ticket – Winnipeg

A man from Narol, northeast of Winnipeg, is Manitoba’s latest lottery winner.

The Western Canada Lottery Corporation announced Thursday that Ronald Bedard hit it big on a scratch ticket purchased at a Co-op in Winnipeg, winning $100,000.

“My only reaction was shock and joy,” Bedard said in a release. “Nothing prepares you.”

A self-described regular scratch ticket player, Bedard said he intends to use his windfall toward completing the home he’s building.
